I mentioned the genius of Jimmy Greaves on a post earlier. I think it’s a disgrace the way players of the non-premier league era are ignored when it comes to achievements and ‘Best of. ” lists. You see it constantly on Sky and MOTD. Alan Shearer top of the list with 260 premier league goals. Jimmy Greaves scored 413 in 588 appearances in the old Division 1 and yet it’s as if he never existed at all.

Because to Skynet, football started in 1992. Back then we thought we stopped football being destroyed by keeping the Premier League a part of the football Pyramid. Breakaway day cannot be stopped though. It can only be postponed.


2.) 18 May 2021 13:12:59
Greaves was an absolute genius.
Best English striker of all time, bar none.


3.) 18 May 2021 13:15:11
Think you’ve gone delirious mate, everyone knows football was created in 1992.


4.) 18 May 2021 13:31:15
You do realise that Sky invented football?
Jimmy Greaves? First goal ever scored in England was Teddy Sheringham against Liverpool. Thought everyone knew that!


5.) 18 May 2021 13:46:17
I remember that game very well Macko. I tortured me poor late dad to get in Sky to watch it. Paul Stewart in midfield🤦‍♂️.


6.) 18 May 2021 13:46:32
Football only began in the 90’s don’t we all know!


7.) 18 May 2021 13:50:53
OP, haven't you heard? Football started being a thing in England in 1992 when Sky invented it. Even worse for certain clubs cos many of their fans believe football started for their club in 2003 and 2008. I just for the life of me, cannot remember the names of these "clubs" in question. Can someone help me, pls?

KloppBoom - I agree that there is a tendency for some people to talk only about the Premier League history and that this is a bit annoying, but I think people who know football and have any real interest in it, do know all about the great teams and players and the records from previous eras.

I do think the media and the broadcasters are a little bit guilty of talking about "the best X in Premier League history" or referring to stats only from the Premier League era, but on the other hand you hear people moaning about Souness talking about how it was back in his day. Lineker on BT and BBC also pre-dates the Premier League of course.

I completely agree on your point about Greaves. I don't think it's down to a bias towards the Premier League because people talk about other prolific strikers and brilliant players from the 80s, 70s and 60s. Greaves just doesn't seem to get the same coverage but real football people know.

In addition to the amazing stats that you shared, Greaves is England's fourth highest scorer of all time but what is most remarkable is that his 44 goals for England came in just 57 matches. Rooney played over twice as many times for England and scored just 9 goals more. Charlton played 49 times more for England than Greaves and scored only 5 more goals. Lineker 23 more appearances but only 4 more goals.

Thats gas Barry! I remember we had it as well (it must have been cheap to get the channels in Ireland at the time! ) .

I was raging we didn't win! Didn't know who Sheringham was but never liked him from that day on!


10.) 18 May 2021 15:30:00
It wasn't even a dish it was a square mesh aerial Eastcoast Multi channel was the name of them. Same as I never heard of TS either but I never forgot his name after that.


11.) 18 May 2021 16:08:00
It's a funny old game.


12.) 18 May 2021 21:44:23
Not to rubbish stir but I actually feel that not mixing PL and pre-PL is legitimate. No doubt sky do it for their own gain but so much changed in football leading up to and around that time including different European competitions, different number of league games, number and type of substitutes etc that the sport really did undergo a material change that would give advantages and disadvantages depending on the category to the older players. When making direct comparisons a clean break does probably make sense for a level playing field.

I think Klopp will quit because of this and take over the German National team. And probably win the World Cup. It seems to me that he would be fundamentally against something like this and would want no part in it.

The only top flight derby left will be Crystal Palace vs Brighton! I can't handle anymore Roy Hodgson so shotgun Brighton!


2.) 19 Apr 2021 16:08:36
The only thing I don't want him to do is to buckle under the pressure from the owners and change his opinion and be diplomatic/ supportive of the ESL. I would lose respect for him and for any Liverpool player who does this.

We should bid for Lewandowski. Seriously! Bayern want Haaland but with Lewandowski being the best in the world there is no space for Haaland in Bavaria at the moment. So sell him to Liverpool to reunite with Klopp. Everybody happy!

KloppBoom

1.) 16 Apr 2021 08:28:37
He’s 33 this summer and at the wrong end of his career. How about we don’t sign a player like that.

{Ed077's Note - But he is amazing you have to give him that?}


2.) 16 Apr 2021 08:38:04
Age is but a number
Up the pool.


3.) 16 Apr 2021 08:40:46
Remember when Man Utd signed Ibrahimovic and won 2 trophies? I'd personally take Lewandowski in a heart beat. This is the best player on the planet for last 18 months that we're talking about. Even if it was only for 2 years it would be unbelievable.


4.) 16 Apr 2021 08:44:54
If his game remotely relied on pace I’d agree with you 6times. But he’s still absolutely banging them in. You only have to look how well Ibramhimovic did in an average UTd team and I think he was even older.


5.) 16 Apr 2021 08:37:03
Never said he wasn’t Ed. But he’s an old man in footballing terms, Serie A is about the right pace of football for him now.

{Ed077's Note - I'm just saying Lewandowski is good enough to be a good player in the PL too were he to move. But he wont leave Bayern this summer, he is too important for them and I dont think Bayern figure into the Haaland transfer saga this summer. They have to rebuild their defence first and foremost whilst Lewandowki is still the best player in the Bundesliga if not the world.}


6.) 16 Apr 2021 09:48:49
One thing is for sure, goal scoring center forward Needed!


7.) 16 Apr 2021 10:24:09
Lewo would be an unreal signing, we need a Central striker who can actually be in the middle to finish all these chances, not many better.


8.) 16 Apr 2021 10:45:39
Zlatan may be available.


9.) 16 Apr 2021 10:58:45
Truth is this. He’s contracted until June 2023, he’s on £20m+ a year, so the costs of bringing him here for two good years at best would be astronomical and make no economic sense given that Bayern would likely be asking upwards of £50m in transfer fees and he’d want a three or four year contract on the same or more than he’s on as a minimum and are we really saying there’s not better value out there for that kind of lay out? Because I’m sure there is better value for money out there and we have to be realistic on these things.

It makes absolutely no sense to my mind to be lumbered with an ageing squad with no resale value, since we have a specific business model that requires selling to fund transfers. The facts don’t care about feelings.

As for the trophies Ibrahimovic won at United, I could live happily without us winning the league cup or the Thursday cup if I’m honest.


10.) 16 Apr 2021 11:03:54
I would take Lewandowski over Harry Kane all day long even at 33. Nah, Bayern won’t be selling him anytime soon.


11.) 16 Apr 2021 13:11:43
6times you'd have to change your username if we got Lewandowski. We'd win the lot for a couple of years. But I think he wants to break Gerd Mullers goalscoring records and will stay where he is.


12.) 16 Apr 2021 16:22:25
Would never look too much into his age. He was robbed of a ballon dor and should be on target for it this season or at least in with a shout with 35 league goals already this year. He is still the best number 9 in world football and will be for a couple of years to come.


13.) 16 Apr 2021 16:49:48
Spot on, Jurgen2020. No one comes close to Lewa as a CF. Not even Kane nor Benzema. He is absolutely special with near NO weaknesses in his game, IMO.


14.) 16 Apr 2021 17:23:42
How can anyone look at our finishing this season and even the last season and say that they don't want the best striker on the planet in our team?

Spaceman is correct, Matip is a brilliant player, definitely one of the best cbs in Europe. Not his fault he keeps getting injured.

Mario Ballotelli. He snuck back in when the world was falling apart two days back. He was inspired by George on Seinfeld.

That Atletico blunder still hurts me. I know it shouldn’t but it does.

KloppBoom

{Ed0666's Note - Don’t forget he deputized for Allison for a load of games the season we won the title and gained us points with some wonder saves and special performances. I feel he has enough credit in the bank to have a few poor performances. Besides we missed chance after chance against Atleti we should of had it wrapped up before Adrians booby.

I’d give Mohamed Salah a new 5 year, 300,000 a week contract and make him captain. No offense to Hendo or other candidates, Salah is one of the best forwards in the world, has exemplary fitness because he does everything right, always gives his absolute best on the pitch, and is a goal-machine and a global icon.
